T&T open CWI Rising Stars U15 campaign

Trinidad and Tobago will open their campaign in the CWI Rising Stars U15 Championship on Saturday against Barbados in Grenada.

T&T will face Barbados in the first of five rounds of 50-over matches on Saturday at Progress Park, Grenada.

T&T will be in action in the subsequent rounds against Jamaica (August 21), Windward Islands (August 23), Leeward Islands (August 25) and Guyana (August 27).

The CWI Rising Stars U15 Champions return to action for the first time since 2019.

“The resumption of our regional age-group competitions after two years is finally allowing us to resume regional talent identification and elite youth development,” said CWI Director of Cricket Jimmy Adams.

“With most of our current internationals having a background in regional age-group cricket, this year’s editions will undoubtedly provide us with initial glimpses of our future stars,” he added.

“It’s always exciting to see future potential and the West Indies Under-15 Rising Stars Championship provides our first glimpse of the talent that has been developed by coaches operating across the region in youth programmes,” said the Performance Manager of CWI, Graeme West.

“This tournament is one of the key elements of the CWI’s investment in the development of younger players across the region. I’m sure these youngsters can’t wait to start making up for the cricket they’ve missed over the last two years and will put on a great show in Grenada,” West added.
